Jack founded the Michelin Guide ‘Midsummer House’- Cambridge’s paramount restaurant. This dining experience is hidden amongst the grassy pastures and grazing cattle of Midsummer Common and perched on the banks of the River Cam. The Midsummer House experience is imaginatively curated to delight and amaze, so the surprise set menu changes regularly and is ‘Midsummer’s’ playground to showcase.

Israeli wines? Until now, very few people probably even knew that wine was produced in Israel, let alone that it’s any good. In this one little book, Israeli wines finally get the attention that they deserve.

The author provides a detailed history of the Israeli wine industry, as well as ample information about each of the wineries whose wine he has reviewed. Wines are given a score out of 100 and each wine is accompanied by a detailed tasting note. The author is the foremost international expert on Israeli wines, so he really knows his stuff. However, he does not limit his tastings to Israeli wines, so his scores are objective and can be compared to wines from other countries.

For anyone interested in tasting the oldest of new world wines, Israel is the place and this book is your guide.
